options
Specify any of the following attributes:
Default Indicates that an ACE is to be included in the
ACL of any files created within a directory. When
the entry is propagated, the Default attribute
is removed from the ACE of the created file. This
attribute is valid for directory files only.
Hidden Indicates that this ACE should be changed only by
the application that adds it. Although the Hidden
attribute is valid for any ACE type, its intended
use is to hide Application ACEs. To delete or modify
a hidden ACE, you must use the SET SECURITY command.
Users need the SECURITY privilege to display a
hidden ACE with the DCL commands SHOW SECURITY
or DIRECTORY/SECURITY. SECURITY privilege is also
required to modify or delete a hidden ACE with the
DCL command SET SECURITY. The ACL editor displays
the ACE only to show its relative position within
the ACL, not to facilitate editing of the ACE. To
create a hidden ACE, an application can invoke the
$SET_SECURITY system service.
Protected Protects the ACE against casual deletion. Protected
ACEs can be deleted only in the following ways:
o By using the ACL editor
o By specifying the ACE explicitly when deleting it
Use the command SET SECURITY/ACL=(ace)/DELETE to
specify and delete an ACE.
o By deleting all ACEs, both protected and
unprotected
Use the command SET SECURITY/ACL/DELETE=ALL to
delete all ACEs.
The following commands do not delete protected ACEs:
SET SECURITY/ACL/DELETE
SET SECURITY/LIKE
SET SECURITY/DEFAULT
Nopropagate Indicates that the ACE cannot be copied by
operations that usually propagate ACEs. For example,
the ACE cannot be copied by the SET SECURITY/LIKE or
SET SECURITY/DEFAULT commands.
None Indicates that no attributes apply to an entry.
Although you can create an ACL entry with
OPTIONS=None, the attribute is not displayed.
Whenever you specify additional attributes with
the None attribute, the other attributes take
precedence. The None attribute is equivalent to
omitting the field.
access
Specify any access that is valid for the object class. See the
OpenVMS Guide to System Security for a listing of valid access
types. For an Alarm ACE to have any effect, you must include the
keywords SUCCESS, FAILURE, or both with the access types. For
example, if the auditing criterion is a failure to obtain write
access to an object, specify the following Alarm ACE:
(ALARM=SECURITY, ACCESS=WRITE+FAILURE)
